I'm reaching the bodywork stage on my resto. The passenger side door has a small dent near the handle. It's only visible because the handle itself doesn't sit flat on the door. Because of its position, I'm not really sure I can push it out.
The driver's side door looks fine, but the mechanism inside the door isn't that great. (When you push the button, the latch that hits the striker falls down. Possibly a broken spring, but haven't had a chance to get in there.
Neither of these doors are original to the car, based on the green paint found underneath. My question is would you just look for different doors? And what other doors would fit?
I know there's a big mopar graveyard up in Oregon that ships. So, I could go that route.
For reference, it's a 1969 Plymouth Valiant 2-door post.
